This distinguished Manhattan Beach residence is the longtime personal home of celebrated architect David Watson, whose Mediterranean Revival influence is reflected throughout the home’s thoughtful and sophisticated design. Upon entering, an elegant foyer welcomes you with an architecturally detailed powder room and sightlines into the main living areas. Formal living… Read More and dining spaces sit just beyond designed for intimate gatherings and entertaining. These spaces transition seamlessly toward the rear of the home, where the open-concept family room and kitchen create the warm, relaxed heart of the residence. The space features wood beam ceilings, a breakfast nook, and direct access to the backyard. The kitchen includes a recently replaced built-in Sub-Zero refrigerator, stainless steel appliances, dual ovens, a breakfast bar, and a walk-in pantry. Two fireplaces are located on the main level, both gas-ignited and wood-burning, adding character and functionality. The adjacent elegant office contains two sets of French doors and overlooks a private interior courtyard framed by a fountain and a majestic bougainvillea-laced tower containing the romantic, winding ironwork staircase inside. Upstairs, the home offers five bedrooms, including the primary suite, a junior suite, and three secondary bedrooms. The west-facing primary suite features dual walk-in closets, a Juliet terrace, and a spa-inspired ensuite bathroom with dual vanities, soaking tub, glass shower, and a private water closet. The junior suite–also west-facing–includes dual walk-in closets, a private terrace, a Juliet balcony, and an ensuite bathroom with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a glass shower. A full bathroom with dual vanities serves the secondary bedrooms, and an upper-level laundry room adds functionality. The backyard serves as a private sanctuary anchored by stately trees including a striking double-trunk avocado, along with an outdoor firepit and a barbecue bar with stovetop. With exceptional privacy this area offers a versatile setting for both relaxation and entertaining. An outdoor shower offers a convenient and refreshing touch after a day at the beach. Additional features include a two-car garage and a premier location near the greenbelt providing access to downtown Manhattan Beach, Manhattan Village, parks, and scenic walking paths. Timeless, inviting, and impeccably crafted, 2508 Pine Ave offers a level of character and grace seldom found on the Manhattan Beach market. Read Less
